Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2012:1277 advisory.

- qpid-cpp: not closing incomplete connections exhausts file descriptors, leading to DoS (CVE-2012-2145)

- qpid-cpp-server-cluster: unauthorized broker access caused by the use of NullAuthenticator catch-up shadow connections (CVE-2012-3467)
